Blechnum gibbum - Dwarf Fijian Tree Fern


Blechnum gibbum - Dwarf Fijian Tree Fern  (Blechnum gibbum - Dwarf Fijian Tree Fern)

My Dwarf Fijian Tree Fern is growing again. It almost died in last November's extremely hot, dry temps! It hasn't had any fronds since late November because they all burned up in the extreme heat! Photo taken Feb. 14, 2017.

Just had a look, are they very slow growing? or do they not grow very tall?

The fronds grow fast; however, they develop a trunk over time. I guess they're a moderate growing tree fern that grows to 5 or 6 feet tall. I've had this one for 10 or more years and it has a 2 1/2 foot trunk.
